SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Interactive specification workflow enables teams to design vision, clarify capabilities, and extract behaviors. It produces spec packets, capability maps, and ADRs for /plan consumption.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated spec generation from ideas
  • Artifacts: Spec packets, capability maps, ADRs for plan consumption
  • Use Case: A team defines a feature intent, and this workflow outputs structured specs and ADRs ready for planning.

Quick Start

Start an interactive specification session for a new feature to generate a complete spec packet, capability map, and ADRs.

Frequently Asked Questions about specify

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I turn vague software ideas into precise specifications and architecture documentation?▼

To turn vague ideas into precise specifications, you can use an interactive, agent-driven workflow that automates spec design through initialization, scope, clarify, and synthesis phases, outputting structured spec drafts and capability maps.

What is the best way to generate architecture decision records (ADRs) from feature intents?▼

Generating ADRs from feature intents is best handled by an automated specification workflow that synthesizes clarified capabilities and behaviors into structured architecture decision records ready for planning consumption.

How do I create state machines for software projects during the specification and planning process?▼

You can create state machines during the synthesis phase of specification design, where clarified behaviors and capabilities are automatically translated into structured state machines and spec packets.

Can I resume an interactive specification workflow if I stop midway through clarifying project scope?▼

Yes, you can resume an interactive specification workflow because the process saves persistent resume data in a .tasker directory, allowing you to pause and continue phase-driven scope clarification later.

Does automated specification design work for agent-driven workflows across different software projects?▼

Automated specification design works effectively for agent-driven workflows across software projects by enforcing a structured, phase-driven process that outputs consistent spec packets and ADRs regardless of the project domain.
